Oho! New Bangkok Art & Culture Center
absolutely has some exclusive shots: Of the not only architecturally impressive Bangkok Art & Culture Center that is about to open its doors after years of setbacks and delays. Opening day is Sunday, July 27th, dedicated to Princess Sirindhorn’s photography.
The new Bangkok Art & Culture Center is not only a gallery and museum. It will mainly promote contemporary Thai art and culture, in the heart of Bangkok. At the new pulse of all non-classic Thai art.
A truly unique art market shall become alive opposite MBK and Siam Discovery Center. Be it paintings, sculptures, music, dance or performances, if you’re into the wide field of art, the new center will have something for you.
One of the center’s architects, Visit Panusittikorn, told absolutely that a press conference on July 21st by Bangkok’s governor Apirak Kosayodhin will provide all the details and such.
The Ministry of Culture has high hopes for the chichi, yet minimalist building. Emerging Thai artists shall find not only a market place for their work. The center is designed as an educational art space and magnet for inspiration.
Even before the official inauguration there’s already quite some, if not anarchic art action at the center’s doorsteps. I ran into some experimental Thai rock session, unplugged style, while various artists showcase their works.
A must for every Bangkokian. Support your local artists. The center hopefully opens a new chapter of possibilities for a wide field of unearthly talented Thai artists.

Guggenheim interior? mai coy hen! A new stomping ground for overinflated egos? In all sincerity let’s hope it will foster new forms of original thought and expression, not just for merchants, posers or Thais, though until now the latter have been starved for such a space.
